i was thinking we could post any X-Position threads in here maybe? yah/nah
there one coming up with Greg Pac maybe someone could ask if he will have Gambit show up in Storms solo seeing as they were once so close?

Hellion and Rockslide are great. Also, I read it and it was pretty good. Stylish art, snappy dialogue. I like it.

X-Position with Gerry Duggan - this is the get questions one.

Interesting if PAD will do one more exposition or he refused to do it.
I was always waiting with great excitement for Expo with Asmus.
-
I dunno, he might but he hasn't been very pleasant with them. I would not be surprised if didn't do any more, or he'll just talk about Spiderman 2099.

Brett comes across pretty well, and he likes Gambit. So - let it rip folks.
-
Brett's probably gonna ask a bunch of Gambit questions to start off, so I say let it rip, but not too hard.
-
Interesting. I think I will ask something but so far I have no questions.

why is it being cancled when other books have lower selling figures yet remain? ask that :D
-
*chuckles* we can ask that it probably won't be answered or given to PAD. I've noticed that Brett White is not using the CBR forum to get questions either or at least not so far.
-
ask him if he was an editor and had to choose between ending All New X-Men and Saving it, What kind of Sandwich would he make?
or
why does Bendis suck so much ?, who pays him? why is he allowed to write X-Books?

X-Position with PAD.
http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=57986
-
He answered my quesion. So "Remy Etienne LeBeau" was used in comics before orit is just Marvel.com imigination?
-
To be honest, that was a waste of a question. Writers have been saying "Etienne" off and on for a while. Not like he broke new ground there and if it wasnt obvious before, hes not the biggest Gambit fan, so I wouldnt have expected any "deep" involved answer. The follow up question was also what I expected from such a impertinent man. Though a lot more frank than I would have guessed.
-
I need to admit that after X-Position I thought that my questions were a waste of a question too. Or maybe I was expecting different answer for them.
-
Really would like to know what is next for Gambit.. X-Factor did not seem to a be a long term project to Marvel. Won't Claremont be free do something with Gambit. Seems like perfect timing with Nightcrawler's solo ending soon.
-
man his answer on character driven stories was right on the money
-
Besides the answer to character driven stories, most of this X-Position was fluff. Glad he likes the team or so he says in the last answer.
He isn't wrong on the character driven stuff.
Not sure if Wolverine in every other issue would have helped or not because by his own look at the book, it would have still been character driven. And he writes 6 issue arcs.
It read like, he didn't really want to answer much. I am intrigued with how the art will be handled between the two artists. But other than that - whatever.
I'm just disappointed that this book didn't get enough people to read it.
-
I found it interesting that he admitted that he knew about the cancellation over 6 months ago. It explains the shift in focus. Probably a combination of personal preference and edict which ended up developing Quicksilver (and oddly even Scarlet Witch, all of which is now pointless with with "Mutants No More" crap. It like the left hand had no idea what the right was doing), whom I believe that Marvel thinks will have the same impact on the MCU that he did with Days of Future Past. I doubt it. Two very different takes on the character.
-
I think you are right Don about change in focus. Still, he talked about stuff and never got to it to do other things. It's like he gave up, imo with the exception of putting QS where he needed to be.

I'm okay with his reaction. He just needs to express it better, imo.

Sales go down on your book? Must be the artist's fault. Book gets canceled? Must be Gambit's fault. I guess blaming the artist is better than a fictional character.

PAD has expanded to another thread - must be bored. He hasn't visited in a long time and now two threads.

Either way - an odd thing.

I agree with NicoPony it seems it is everyone else fault except his.
-
I just think he should acknowledge that maybe he missed the mark. But that said, sometimes its hard to see it. 2 more issues and then Gambit drought.

Definitely missed it. The book was totted as a Gambit POV team book. The premise: an international corporation gets into the superhero game using "X-Factor" as a name. As direct follow up from the Gambit solo and his new status quo, Gambit fans expected a reflection of that. Asmus made him (while never winning a real fight mind you), cunning, calculating, suave, the king of thieves and subsequently the head of a secret order. We never really got that. The first issue had him bumbling a heist, belittled by Wolverine, sulking in a bar and cracking jokes, that weren't out of character, but out of place with what we got used to seeing over the prior year+. PAD seemed to downplay everything that should have mattered to Gambit on a personal level (The Guild, being Death, his love life), but again, not out of character, but somewhat out of place. How does the horseman subject not come up until the second to last issue? And even then, brought up and dropped. I hope it was a foreshadowing to next issue, because it disappeared in less than 6 pages when it was brought up as a gag. Not to mention all the Egypt references throughout the book, (Serval logo, Georgia aka Decay that seemingly turns people into mummies, and now they are reading hieroglyphs in a arid country and about to fight some sort of resurrected god that looks nothing put ancient Egyptian), a lot of people thought the presence of Apocalypse's former horsemen would tie into his return in AXIS. But of course not. Why the #$%# would that happen?
The supposed King of Thieves had no ulterior motive to volunteering to work for and live within a multi-billion dollar organization? Really? He can blame, characters, artists, business models and edicts all he wants, the man had not one, but two niche audiences to draw from (his loyal X-Factor readers and Gambit fans who sustained a solo higher than several team books at the time with next to zero advertising or story tie-ins) and still couldn't make it work. He found out the book was being canceled and it visibly showed. He basically did a 180 and abandoned the original book model. It from "All-New X-Factor" to "Quicksilver and The House of M".
-
the biggest problem was Georgia, the book had a building pace and numbers then her arc begins and boom the book declines, the same thing happened with X-Factor before he focused on characters not part of the core team and readers lost interest, he brought in Darwin, Longshot and Shatterstar who no one really had interest in at that point, and the Shatterstar/Longshot conection.....are you freaking kidding me, the more i think about that run the angrier i get, this book had great potential and PAD yet again screwed the pooch,as they say, blaming everyone but himself is childish but im glad he mentioned the poor art quality and big events, unfortunately its warped in childish ranting
-
No kidding. The only reason I remained calm and optimistic is because hes known for writing long sweeping stories, a long ball kind of guy, ya know how Remender thinks of himself. But now that its ending and see that's there basically no forward momentum, I'm supremely disappointed. He says that "they'll show up again in Spiderman 2099" but that means LIMBO. If the team remains intact after the last issue they become off panel, retcon ammo, guest stars of no consequence: limbo with the chance of visitation once or twice a year.

or maybe they become a team for some new writer to do something with?

That would be awesome... But Marvel doesn't make me optimistic. To be honest, when I learned what Serval was in the Marvel universe, I thought X-Factor and PADs stories wouldnt be an exclusively X-Men book. I thought the nature of the premise and what the company means to the world would allow it to literally go anywhere. I thought they'd clash with the Avengers, make real enemies of AIM (not just villain of the week crap) and HYDRA, bump heads with SHEILD, become unspoken rivals to the X-Factions (in terms of a super team of mutants). They'd even have reason to go over in the UK and interact with MI:13. Serval is Google of Marvel? They had no boundaries. But instead we got unnecessary made villains, foolishness and internal, petty, boring angst. The book had so much potential, but I guess you can put that on the editors as well. What was their long term vision for the book? Who knows...
-
the editors missed out by not having an X-Factor/ X-Force crossover
-

Word. I thought for sure they'd use UA as well... Didnt have to be a crossover because Lord knows how far Remender's book was trailing behind. They could have easily had them guest star for arc, if nothing else, in an attempt to boost sales. Same with Cyke and Wolvie's X-Men teams. I thought the premise left it open for several books to crossover logically. But most definitely X-Force seeing as they were so anti-establishment and X-Factor's first mission involved what X-Force did on a monthly basis.

G. Willow Wilson X-Position
http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=58257
CBR News: First off, as with any incoming writer, fans want to know if you have any plans to use any characters outside of the core X-Men team? Dani Moonstar, Firestar, Frenzy, Polaris, Danger, Emma Frost, Blink -- there are a lot of X-Men that people want to see in "The Burning World."
G. Willow Wilson: This arc is pretty tightly focused on the central five characters of the current roster, since there's a lot of character drama involved -- however! Beast does have a supporting role, and Gambit -- one of my all time favorite X-people -- has a brief cameo.
Soooo - he's not skeezy anymore? Just wondering. Now he's one of an all time favorite for her? Damage control from the last time or do you think its genuine.
-
I am guessing Damage control my self.

I am guessing Damage control my self.
I thought that too. Wonder if the letter I sent helped. LOL
___
She is getting another book after her four issue arc.
How long do you plan on staying on the book? Please let it be for a while!
Aww! Only four issues. But then I move on to a brand new book that I can't talk about except to say that if you like this particular X-Team, you will like the new book. And if you don't like this particular X-Team, you will like the new book anyway.
Next week, X-Position welcomes new "Wolverines " writer Ray Fawkes into the fold. Have a question for Ray? Go ahead and send 'em in via an e-mail with the subject line "X-Position" or if 140 character questions are more your speed, try Twitter. But get 'em in quickly, because the deadline's Friday! Make it happen!

They'll do a thread at CBR too.
-
her new book is probably an all female superhero team which would be cool if done right
-
Thats fine if that is what she wants to write, but it didn't get me interested when Wood started this book and I'm not going to buy a different all woman book just because a woman writer is writing it.

X-POSITION: Ray Fawkes Slashes His Way Into "Wolverines"
-
Interview with Spurrier (not an X-position but I'll put it here anyway)
http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=58447
Si acknowledges some stuff about today's market
I believe that in order for the important parts of a story to really have meaning the only thing that truly matters is that it ends. "Happy" or "sad" doesn't come into it.
That's obviously problematic when it comes to ongoing series. My approach therefore is always to construct an interlinked chain of modular stories, each with its own preoccupations and conclusions, which themselves should form the beats of a wider macro tale.
In today's climate one can realistically expect a mid-tier series to last somewhere between 10 and 24 episodes before a relaunch, change-up, paradigm-shift or whatever-it-may be (and that's a phenomenon I'm all in favor of, by the way, for some of the same reasons as the above waffle about endings). Hence it's a smart strategy to go into each gig with ideas for a good half-dozen modular stories, knowing that you probably won't end up using them all
Someone should send this to PAD :P
PS: Next X-Po is with Bunn (Mags solo)
-
Hmm... Need new books to read. I'll read the Gambit issues of Storm. I was looking at Uncanny Inhumans. Won't touch anything Bendis is writing. Can't stand his style. So sad I can't look at any of the current X-Men books and be interested.

X-POSITION: KALAN UNPACKS "SPIDER-MAN & THE X-MEN'S" TRIP TO MOJOWORLD
http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/x-position-kalan-unpacks-spider-man-the-x-mens-trip-to-mojoworld
I loved X Kids reaction when they found Gambit and that entire Gambit/Chameleon scene. Do you have any plans for real Gambit to appear?
Thanks! No plans for the real Gambit. While I was writing this run he was busy in the masterful hands of the God Among Men named Peter David. Just as well since fans of my podcast, The Flop House, know that I'm not Remy LeBeau's biggest fan. And in fact I should take this opportunity to give credit to my Flop co-host Stuart Wellington for first describing Gambit as a "cajun pirate ninja thief" -- though I stole that from him fair and square!
-
While nice and he described G in a neat way - another non fan. At least he recognized the fact he shouldn't write him. This limbo is gonna be long I suspect. Liked the props to PAD, even though PAD hasn't really shined when it came to Gambit.
-
"He was busy"
What #$%# does that mean? He's a fictional character. Where's the rule that a character can only exist in one book at any given time? And if that's the case why doesn't that fall upon Wolverine, Captain America, Spiderman, Storm, Captain Marvel, Ironman, Thor and Deadpool? I understand if the character is in the middle of a status changing like Rogue was supposed to be, or Wolverine in he midst of his death, or loosing his powers or having them changed. Gambit was doing exactly squat except propping up the week's current lead (Georgie, Polaris or Quicksilver). Hell even the arch that involved him directly had no bearing on him (The Thieves Island and intro of Danger). All so disappointing.

but the dude is not a fan would you want him writing him?
-

I'm at the point that I don't want any dude or dudette writing Gambit who is not a fan of him or at least likes him.
-
I think he just gave us a polite answer that he do not like Gambit. At least he can speak with fans in a good way.
-
I think it's so funny how a lot of creators and people at Marvel now state how they loved the X-Men animated series and that generation is now started to work for Marvel, yet the majority of the creators there say how they have a distaste for Gambit. The guy was the X-Men TAS as far as I'm concerned.
-
I'm starting to be even more annoyed with XTAS influence. I think its great that some got into characters because of it but ... it was just a cartoon.
-
I just think it's funny that they all say they were fans of it.. but "don't get" Gambit. The two go hand-in-hand if you ask me.

But Gambit was also missing in a good chunk of episodes, and a lot of the time his story line interfered with the others
-

I was really pointing out how that excuse has been thrown around Marvel lately. "They were busy". Heck its an excuse that's been used at least twice involving Gambit. During his solo Asmus was denied access to several characters because they were "busy". Its getting old.
-
Yeah and its a BS excuse, hey Marvel its called not connecting the continuity unless its called for in the story. They just dont want Gambit in anything until X-men 92 comes out, and we will just have to see how many issues Gambit is in that

X-POSITION: YOST GIVES HIS X-MEN AN "AMAZING" END
Lastly, Alucard2099 has a question that looks past "Amazing X-Men" and into the future.
"Amazing X-Men" is ending before "Secret Wars," so are there any other X-related projects in your near future?
Not strictly X-related is "MODOK Assassin," coming out in May. [It's] a "Secret Wars" tie in, there's also a well known mutant -- who might be played by Channing Tatum in a future movie -- as well as some purple X-villains in the first issue.
If I am right Modok will fight Assassin Guilds in his mini so it makes sence for Gambit to appear. I hope Yost will use Remy fine.
-
Me too. This mini is 5 issues btw. I noticed that in the previews book I got from my shop.
How cool - another Gambit appearance. I hope Yost does a good job with him.

Maybe Sentinels? They're purple and red
-
well aprt from that the only other dudes i can thin of are Kahn and his aliens from X-Treme vol.1
-
I have got a mixed feeling about Hellbound. There were some awesome Deathbit moments but a fight with Cannoball was really bad.
-
I'm not sure what you mean by really bad. If you mean that Cannonball won, well - Deathbit is one of the bad guys in the mini.
I liked Hellbound because it did something with Deathbit, showed some of his powers.
What would have been great was a wrap to Deathbit but I think there was some interference as how much could or would be done with Deathbit.
-
I do not like the whole fight and conversation. In h2h Gambit is much better and with Death persona fight really should have been memorable and with some awesome moments. For me there was nothing interesting in this fight.

Cannonball was trying to get a reaction from Death and he didnt, Death was toying with him, it took Illiana and Pixie to stop him with thier soul sword and dagger and even then it was kind of a sucker move, could have been worse

I gotta agree, it could have been worse. I just look at it as, they were doing what it takes to take Death down and hope Gambit came back. In this case, its what the story needs.
If nothing ever happens to Gambit, then there isn't any history. And as history goes, this isn't so bad. Captain America punching G three times for no real reason was far worse, imo.

I think that is an interesting point. They don't know it - and none of them ask him about it either. They just accept he's back. To me, its a small thing that could have been explored. The only person who had a clue later on was Blindfold.
-
yup then AoX which could have explained how he no longer turned into Death
-

IA - take the time to work through it. It would not have needed allot of pages but a few or some really well done panels. Just address it and not sweep it.
-
I like how Liu resolved Death persona with one panel.
-
i did and didnt, i liked she addressed it, didnt like how it basically boils down to, i decided i didnt want to be Death so i stopped lol
-
Liu handled Death ok. It could have been better, she kept allot of her stuff simple. She came across as wanting a darker type book but didn't delve into that much until the Iceman arc. Marvel has ignored that unfortunately. And more could have been done in a buddy type thing with Bobby and Remy.

X-POSITION: X-Editors Guide the X-Men Through "Secret Wars" & Beyond - Part 2
http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/x-position-x-editors-guide-the-x-men-through-secret-wars-beyond-part-2
Gambit the collector was a surprise appearance in the preview of "Star-Lord and Kitty Pryde." Will we see more of him in the book or is it just a cameo?
Harrington: He's such a fun addition to the book! And it feels like such a natural thing to have happen to Gambit, this master thief -- of course there'd be a version of him out there that's filled the role of The Collector! I bet he just couldn't help himself. I don't want to give too much away, so I guess you'll have to pick up the book to see how big his part is.
We need more of this attitude about Gambit. And now, this book is officially on my list. :)

As for killing Gambit. I don't think he did, he just wrote an excuse for the character not being in the series. If the character is dead, he doesn't have to deal with him. IMO
Technically ... Gambit was already dead in that universe.
-
maybe rephrase it and ask if it was his decision or editorial to kill off Gambit
-
I made it in such way: In NYCC 2014: Marvel 75th interview you told that one of your favourite things in comics were soft moments for Gambit and Rogue where they could just sit and talk. Why you decided to kill off Gambit in current version of AOA?
I think it creates some thoughts about this situation so maybe he will answer.

X-POSITION: NICIEZA BODY-SLIDES FROM "AGE OF APOCALYPSE" TO "DEADPOOL & CABLE"
With the SW "AoA," I kind of liked the Gambit retcon -- though I was sad he was dead, I found Rogue missing him quite touching. What was the thought behind this change in the world's lore? Was it to create a fresh tone in this world? Also, what changes did it allow you to make to the characters that interacted with him?
I knew there was absolutely no way I'd be able to fit all the characters from the gajillion issues that was the original "AoA" into a 5-part story, so I had to either ignore or cull (or both). I chose to kill Gambit because the entire side story of "Gambit & the X-Ternals" from the original story was made moot by the Battleworld status quo. So… having him be dead at the time of this story makes for a lonelier, more isolated Rogue, which played better for the "cornered rats" approach to the surviving X-Men.
I also did not want Rogue to be married to Magneto in this new story, since I always hated that with a capital HATED THAT in the original. I disliked the entire Magneto/Rogue "relationship" as an original reader, much less a writer, so in the new "AoA," I got to create more logical pairings for each of them.
-
My opinion of Nicieza is even higher than it was before I read this! Lol. Still an alive Gambit is always more useful to a comic book than a dead one!
-
I concur a living Gambit is preferable... but I love him for sparing us a third installment of Rogneto ... it gives me the creeps...
-
;) yes, it would have been nice to have aoa gambit back (but I guess the whole battle world thing did make his mission impossible (rimshot :D ) but major kudos to him for being practically the only male writers at marvel to realize middle aged men marrying their foster daughters is creepy ( that is a very sad fact...)

X-Po with the editors.
Not very many books in the Xline and sadly Gambit's only book is Xmen '92
http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/x-position-x-editors-bring-the-x-men-into-all-new-all-different-marvel
Ketchum: Well, our current line-up of X-Titles is "Extraordinary [X-Men]," "All-New [X-Men]," "Uncanny [X-Men]," "Old Man Logan," "All-New Wolverine" and "[X-Men] '92." (I feel like I'm forgetting one... ?) I promise they are indeed wildly different from one another! No immediate plans to add more X to the plate at the moment, but that's not to say there won't be more titles involving X-characters...

X-Position with Lemire: Part 1 - Extraordinary Xmen
http://www.comicbookresources.com/article/giant-size-x-position-lemire-launches-extraordinary-x-men-part-1-2015
Could you give us some hints as to what we can expect? What's your plan for Iceman?
Iceman's sexuality will indeed be explored in "Extraordinary X-Men" and also in Dennis Hopeless and Mark Bagley's "All-New X-Men." I will have the "adult" Bobby on my team, and Dennis and I are very conscious of treating them both as individual characters, each with their own motivations, and stories. So I will be focusing solely on him.
My hope is that Bobby, and the rest of the cast, will be very complicated and layered characters. So his sexuality will definitely be a big part of who he is in "Extraordinary X-Men," but again, not the only thing that defines him. It will be a very challenging time for Bobby. Mutantkind is facing incredible challenges, and as our story begins, Bobby has been so busy that his personal life will have taken a back seat. But as the series and new status quo settles in, his sexuality and what it means for his life moving forward will be a storyline. Bobby will not be the only gay character on the team, though.

Laura also has a history with a certain Ragin' Cajun, as Lawrence points out.
One interaction I'm really hoping for is between Laura and Gambit. He played a big role in her last series as a sort of mentor/ big brother, and really supported her through some dark times. I love the relationship those two built up and am wondering if Gambit will make an appearance in future issues and if that relationship has evolved or changed with Laura's new hero status?
Tom Taylor: That relationship was definitely important and I think we'll want to see him for sure. But, to some extent, Laura has moved past those dark times. See my next answer for more on this.

My guess - basically they may still be friends but Laura doesn't need a mentor or someone to support her anymore. She all strong and confident now about her abilities and role as the new Wolverine.

Basically, they're ignoring Gambit's relationship with her.

Your Gambit solo is my favorite series ever. Can we expect you to write Gambit again soon?
Most writers working for the Big Two don't get to choose what characters they get to write, Purplevit. They need to be offered an assignment by an editor, so if you'd like to see me write Gambit again, send a note to the current X-editors and let them know.

Yeah, I was surprised that Fabian answered it.

All I want is a book with Gambit in it. Is there any hope for that?
Yes. Yes, there is. Maybe even more than one.
And anyajenkins wants to know a bit more about Red Skull's mental trickery.
How did Red Skull even know about Gambit? The Professor's telepathy, I'd guess. Does that mean the psychic defenses he talked about aren't all that great? He can still read their minds and project illusions, what other limits are there?
He plucked Gambit from Rogue's mind. It would put anyone off their game. He's wanted to get in and out before anyone noticed -- let alone the Unity Squad.

Speaking of upcoming X-Men books, there is a new "Deadpool V Gambit" series coming in the next few months -- and Purplevit has a question about it.
I am really excited about "Deadpool vs. Gambit." Can we expect to see this mini to be connected with "Uncanny Avengers" in some way?
Ketchum: I'm going to Phone a Friend, Purplevit, and call "Deadpool V Gambit" editor Jordan D. White to weigh in!
Jordan D. White: Nope! No connection other than both being excellent books featuring Wade Wilson. In "Deadpool V Gambit" we're delving into the heretofore unrevealed history between the Regeneratin' Degenerate and the Ragin' Cajun. Turns out they've pulled confidence games together on the side over the years. The last one didn't end well between them, but now they're getting back together for one more score. That sort of thing never goes wrong!

I didn't look for images, so that is Gambit doing small scale thievery in underground with a stereotypical thief. OK that is something. My reaction for him caused for his answer about Rogue for a Gambit question.
-
To be fair, Gambit isn't part of Uncanny Avengers, Rogue is. I doubt that Gambit will be joining the book long term at this stage. And he won't be joining any books if Deadpool v Gambit doesn't do well enough.

And Calintz also has a question about everyone's favorite Southern superhero.
In the future will we get to see Rogue in a relationship that doesn't involve Gambit or Magneto? I liked what you tried to do with Johnny and wished that would have played out but as life goes.
Yes, a relationship seems to be slowly developing for her. I've already enjoyed people beginning to notice.
Most likely Hank Pym ..... good for her. :)

I also hope they really don't depend to deeply on 21 Jump Street persona that Tatum used, I've seen that movie, not impressed. :P
-
Yeah that's the one thing they got wrong, and it's a big thing. Gambit isn't dumb. He's really intelligent despite growing up on the streets. Except that maybe its not academic intelligence but more like street smarts. I mean, the guy is the king of thieves. You dont get there by being Tatum in the Jump Street movies.
My guess is they read up on Gambit to research the character because they had to write him. It seems that they enjoy writing the character but have no special love for him like they do with Deadpool? Should still make for a fun read. I'll pick it up on my lunch break and report back when I'm home from work.
-
Agree Spoonz. This comment made me sad too.
Also it seems they do not know any Gambit stories. Like they know him only from XTAS.
I hope I will enjoy first issue today.
Edit: Writers are not even sure if Gambit and DP had ever met :( That means they even don`t know that DP was hired to kill Remy.
Blacker:I'm sure they've met here and there in the X-books over the years (and if they haven't, that seems like a crazy oversight).
-
They were far too excited about FF and Alpha Flight in an interview meant for DvG, but whatever.
I think they're young and only remember what most remember who don't read comic books. I would guess they didn't have to do much research and went with whatever editorial told them.
They've written Deadpool before so Gambit is new to them. Guess we'll see.

Huge thanks for the Gambit surprise in “Civil War II: X-Men”! It was a big present for Gambit fans. Can we expect to see you writing Remy in future again? Maybe in some new project?
Hey, Purplevit! I’d love to spend some more time writing Gambit. I don’t think it’s a secret that I’ve pitched a Gambit ongoing on more than one occasion. There are no immediate plans for such a thing, though.

X-POSITION: Bunn Teases IvX’s Impact On Uncanny X-Men
-
Sorry for the possibly off topic or out of place question that I may have just missed the answer to somewhere but I've been wondering this for a while. Why is the X-Position thread not in one of the X-Men forums? Did it just start here for some reason and can't be moved? Just haven't understood why the X-Men Q&A series main thread has ended up in the Avengers section other than the crossover of the brands I guess but there's the Uncanny X-Men/Uncanny Avengers section of the forum for that now.
-
Because X-Po doesn't always focus on Xmen. Sometimes its Uncanny Avengers which is an Xmen/Avenger mix team. And sometimes its a solo book author, not necessarily Xmen specific. I can move it but thought the broader scope was best. :)

Fair enough. That's what I thought... just have found it a little weird. Thanks for the answer.

No prob. If others think the thread should move, it can be moved. :) As long as we can find it, all good with me. ;D

X-Po with Tom Taylor, writer of All New Wolverine
http://community.comicbookresources.com/showthread.php?89752-Submit-Your-X-Position-Questions-For-Tom-Taylor
We know Gambit will make an appearance, maybe we should ask him about that. LOL
-
Great! We definetely should!
-
Yes, we should. I did post questions already in the thread. But I think if we let the writer know we like him, maybe Gambit can appear again. :)
-
If solitics true then we have at least 2 issues with Gambit :)

X-POSITION: All-New Wolverine’s Tom Taylor Teases Clash With Gambit

He says good things about Gambit - hopefully he delivers and I'm glad Liu's work isn't totally forgotten. :)

When does the issue with Gambit come out?

Next month. All New Wolverine #17

Moving on, we have a question from Purplevit about a certain Ragin’ Cajun.
Will Gambit join the Gold team or just appear as guest star? Did you like to write him?
For the moment, he’s just a guest star — albeit a pivotal one — in our second arc. But I love Gambit and he’s enormously fun to write. He’s got buckets of charisma and a devil-may-care attitude that defies you not to like him.
Its nice to see a writer be positive about Gambit. :)
-
Waiting for the right cross... So which Gambit will be better? Soule or Guggenheim?
-
Based solely on cast, I'm going to predict Guggenheim. There is no potential triangle issues or relationship bs in the gold appearance.
We don't have a clue as to what Soule will do and based on cast, there is a triangle already in place if UA's continuity sticks.
-
I really like how Guggenheim described Gambit so I vote for him.
I don't know what to expect from Soule really
-
At least there's good news so far... ;)
